EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the deep bond between a groom and his magnificent thoroughbred racehorse, Waxey. The photograph, taken by Pot80s in the 18th century, captures a moment of quiet connection amidst the bustling world of horse racing. Owned by Sir Ferdinand Poole, Waxey exudes strength and elegance as he stands beside his devoted caretaker. The groom's gentle touch reflects years of dedicated care and training that have molded this majestic creature into a champion on the racetrack. The copperplate engraving by Cook beautifully translates John Nost Sartorius Jr. 's original painting from The Sporting Magazine onto paper. Every stroke captures the grace and power that define these noble animals. Set against a backdrop reminiscent of the regency era, this image transports us to an age when horse racing was not just a sport but also an integral part of society's fabric. It evokes images of thrilling horseraces, where fortunes were won or lost with every thundering hoofbeat. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, we are reminded of the enduring allure that horses hold over our collective imagination. They represent freedom, speed, and untamed spirit – qualities that continue to captivate us even today. Bridgeman Images has once again curated an exceptional piece from their vast collection at Fine Art Finder. This print is sure to be cherished by art enthusiasts who appreciate both history and the timeless beauty found within equestrian culture.
